The finale of the Miss World 2011 pageant is nearing, with just three days left for the final event.

After rigorous training and rehearsals, the contestants need a refreshing break to rejuvenate themselves with, for what could be the toughest day of their lives so far.

To do just that, early on Monday morning, the contestants visited some of the more iconic tourist attractions in London.

The 443 feet-high, giant Ferris wheel - the London Eye - is one of the more popular attractions in the United Kingdom. Located on the southern bank of the River Thames, it is perhaps one of the best places for photography, offering a splendid view of historical buildings with the House of Parliament in the backdrop.
